Thanks for replying.
Doesn't "～てくれる" mean "someone help me to do something"? Why in this sentence that mean Aunt happy?

- Vietnamese
@SC1121 the author of the letter feels bleshed because the aunt becomes happy
"～てくれる" means "do something for~", this also applies on feelings
- Japanese
～てくれる
→人が自分に何かをすることを表す
✕喜んだ→ Looks happy
○喜んでくれた→ Bother、Kindly Expressed happiness
It's difficult.
～てくれる is Gratitude for the behavior of the other party

- German Near fluent
別人由於說話者做的事情而開心的時候，說話者會這樣說。也可以說「とても喜んだ」，但感覺有點冷淡（只表達事實而已的感覺）。

I would maybe say it could be more of "to do something for me or somebody’s sake", in that case you could also write the sentence as "*Me* writing a letter (to my aunt), made my aunt very happy".
